O now carry me to Bethlehem to see the Lord appear to men — just as poor as was the stable then, the prince of glory when he came. 3 Angels, sing again the song you sang, bring God's glory to the heart of man; sing that Bethl'hem's little baby can be salvation to the soul. O now carry me to Bethlehem to see the Lord appear to men — just as poor as was the stable then, the prince of glory when he came. 4 Mine are riches, from your poverty; from your innocence, eternity; mine, forgiveness by your death for me, child of sorrow for my joy. O now carry me to Bethlehem to see the Lord appear to men - just as poor as was the stable then, the prince of glory when he came.
